At this point in the prophecy to Daniel the dodgey king starts boasting how much better than God he is. It reminds me of some people’s attitudes towards God. It often seems that everyone has a right to believe what they want, unless you are a Christian. I have mates who are massively enthusiastic about the big bang theory. But if I raised the fact that I believe in a universe created by God, they would tell me that I had no right to spread that around. They would feel that telling everyone that there is no God is OK. But when I said Jesus was the one true way to God, they treated me like I was an intolerant maniac. So how does that effect what we do at college or school? Well in truth it doesn’t. It doesn’t affect your relationship with God one little bit. It does mean that you might want to be careful about what other people say. If people are boasting to you that you evolved from a bit of jelly but then Gods Bible is telling you that he created you; then you might want to look into the truth of the matter, rather than accepting other peoples boasts that they know more than God. If people are boasting to you that there is no God and you know different then maybe you can begin to understand that not everything you hear at college, see on the internet or watch on TV is true.
